VAP's Top Picks: A Vegan Week In Review

TGIF! Yet another work week has flown by, and the vegan world continues to move and shake. More exciting vegan news, recipes, podcasts and articles have been flying around the Internet this past week, and VAP was there to catch them all. We are happy to share some of our favorite highlights just in case you missed them. 

Here are VAP’s Top 5 Picks for this Vegan Week In Review… 

1. GQ Sports’ Article Entitled “Arian Foster: The NFL’s Unstoppable Vegan” 

In this article, GQ Sports gives 10 reasons why the Houston Texan, Arian Foster, is currently their favorite running back. Reason #1 is that Foster led the NFL in touchdowns last season–his 3rd straight with a dozen or more. The other 9 reasons involve him being the most unusual, most interesting rusher in the game. 

VAP likes Reason #8 the most…”Because he’s a vegan. Ok, ‘mostly vegan,’ he says, ‘supplemented with the occasional chicken or fish dish.’” No judgments here! We are thrilled that this superstar athlete is putting his name and face on the “mostly vegan” label.

2. Patricia Sheridan’s Breakfast Interview With Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn Jr. In The Pittsburgh Post Gazette 

This interview is a must read! Find out what Dr. Esselstyn has to say about his own personal commitment to a plant-based diet, the challenges associated with his mission to change the American diet, and the additions he would make to Prevent & Reverse Heart Disease today if he could.
 
“Having the USDA design a food pyramid for the public is like having Al Capone do your taxes.” -Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn Jr.
